FUJIFILM INDUSTRIAL RADIOGRAPHIC FILM IX20, IX25, IX50, IX80, IX100, IX150, IX29 AND IX59

Fujifilm industrial X-ray films feature revolutionary new film technology. The combination of the latest in emulsion making science and computerized manufacturing processes assure consistent batchto-batch performance; optimum image quality and compatibility with all NDT chemistries and current brand tank / automatic processing conditions. The Fujifilm family of films incorporate unique speed, and grain technologies thus permitting their use over a wide range of applications with consistent high quality regardless of the material examined and the source of radiation employed.

TYPES AND FEATURES

An appropriate choice is made among the eight types of Fujifilm Industrial Radiographic Film according to the material and thickness of specimens, the kilovoltage or energy of radiation, and the required accuracy of inspection. Relative Speed ]
